Let's Get Started!

Do You Have What It Takes?

FIRST YOU NEED A CAPTAIN

Everyone has this friend in their friend group. It’s the guy who always rallies the others to get off the couch and head out for a drink. It’s the mom who remembers to sign all of her kids’ school forms and never accidentally leaves a kid waiting at an after school activity. It’s that person that is often referred to as the “mayor” of whatever circle you run in. This is the person that brings the energy, makes sure that everyone has a blast, and believes that YOU ARE CHAMPIONS.

THEN YOU NEED A TEAM

The team is made up of 10-15 participants who will compete in competitions ranging from relay races to human battleship. You’ll want to recruit your team members wisely. Finding a mix of athletic prowess, creative genius, and barely tolerable enthusiasm is no easy feat.

NOW IT’S TIME TO GET TO WORK

The team captain is ultimately accountable for getting it done, but this is absolutely a team effort. Here’s a preview of what you’ll need to do:

WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE A CHAMPION

Each team will compete in 5 rounds of competition. Each event will have points allocated and will be awarded based on the rules of the competition.

In addition, points will be given to the team with the BEST SPIRIT, as determined by our judges.

Points will also be awarded to the final tally for total funds raised, based on 1 percent of the total. (e.g. if a team raises $2,500, then 25 points will be added to that team’s total)

The CHAMPION will be announced at closing ceremonies and awarded the soon-to-be-legendary DAY OF CHAMPIONS TROPHY!

WHO ULTIMATELY WINS

The 500+ children who will attend an Experience Camp in one of 4 locations around the country next summer. Each one of them has suffered the unimaginable loss of a parent, sibling, or primary caregiver that has changed their lives forever. They often feel alone and like nobody understands...until they get to camp. And then they are surrounded by other kids who “get it” and they finally realize that all of these feelings they’re having are normal. It is powerful, transformative, joyful, and healing. It is the best week of the year for each child who attends. And that’s the reason we’re doing this.
